Sounds like a auto-repair. Maybe this article helps:

Hi Again !

I think I found the problem caused this auto-repair.
In the installation i install 10 files to a Temp directory inside my TARGETDIR.
then in the custom action i check if i need to copy them to a specific location and delete the temp dir or just delete the temp directory

When I check the event viewer i get 1001,1004 errors about these files.

The problem is i dont need them there and i delete them through CA.

Any suggestion how can i fix it ???

Don't make these files key file of a component.
